Cape Fligeli, Rudolf Island, Franz Josef Land
The World

The Federal Franz Josef Land Nature Reserve, the Russian Arctic National Park.

Cape Fligely is the northernmost point of Eurasia. The distance between Cape Fligely and the North Pole is about 900 km. At the time of shooting it was 905 km 72 m 40 cm. It was measured from the edge of the glacier, so the outcome may vary.

Cape Fligely is located on the north-east coast of Rudolf Island. Cape Fligely was discovered on 12 April 1874 by Julius von Payer and named in honor of August von Fligely – an Austrian Field Marshal and a cartographer.

Rudolf Island is the northernmost island of the archipelago of Franz Josef Land. It was named by Julius von Payer in honor of Crown Prince Rudolf - the only son of Franz Josef I, the Emperor of Austria.

More About The World

Welcome to Earth! It's a planet having an iron core, with two-thirds of its surface covered by water. Earth orbits a local star called the Sun, the light of which generates the food supply for all the millions of species of life on earth. The dominant species on Earth is the human being, and you're one of the six billion of them! Humans have iron in their blood, and their bodies are composed of two-thirds water, just like the planet they live on. The physical composition of the Earth, its people and everything on it contains an electro-magnetic field which is not yet fully understood. Theories and legends about the origin of Earth, people and life itself abound, however they are not commonly discussed. The bulk of earth's people spend their time immersed in daily activities, leaving the big questions for later. "Who are we? Where did we come from? Where are we going? How will we get there?" Many religions and philosophies have attempted to answer these questions over the years, but so far none has given an answer that everyone on the planet can accept. In contrast to all the disagreement, the similarities among people on earth are far, far greater than any differences. Welcome again to Earth! Enjoy your stay, and try to stay calm.
